3. Install crankshaft sprocket for left timing chain. If copper links are not visible on timing chain, fold timing chain in half and mark each end link for timing purposes. See Fig. 15. These links will be referred to as copper links when installing.

7. Chain tensioners must be bled down so tensioner plunger is compressed in housing before installing. Place chain tensioner in soft-jaw vise. Using small pick, hold ratchet lock mechanism away from ratchet stem. See Fig. 16. Slowly close vise to depress tensioner plunger.

8. When tensioner plunger is compressed in housing, continue to hold ratchet lock mechanism and install lock pin in hole on tensioner housing. Ensure ratchet stem is even with tensioner housing before installing lock pin. See Fig. 16.

9. Using "C" clamp or suitable tool, remove all slack from timing chain by applying pressure to tensioner arm. While holding pressure on arm, install both chain tensioners and retaining bolts on cylinder block. Tighten bolts to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS.
